Watchmen Looks good, but i was somehow expecting something different. I'll have to let it sink in first. I do have to admit though, the visuals are stunning. Body of Lies Thoughts and Comments?

I don't really know what to think about Body of Lies. It looks interesting, has a great cast and director but it seems to be lacking a certain punch. I'll probably be seeing it anyway, but if it starred other people, I might have passed. The Watchmen trailer on the other hand is perfect. I've seen enough to get psyched, without making me feel like I've seen too much, if that makes sense.

Yeah, I still don't know really anything about Watchmen after seeing the trailer. People unfimilar with the graphic novel will be probably confused during the preview.

I have just witnessed the Watchmen trailer 4 times in a row, and every time I get all tingly. Seriously, probably the greatest comic of all time and it's backed up by music from the my favourite rock band. As Kompressr said, absolutely perfect. I can't wait to see it in the cinemas, even watching it on HD in its largest format just won't be enough. I so hope its attached to my TDK screening. Simply stunning.

Welcome to the forums Eerie, and what you said is spot on. I couldn't agree more. I am so hyped about this film its unbelieveable. I saw it this morning and have so far watched it seven times. I gets better on every viewing. If its on my TDK screening I may go all Donte on the seat in front.... And you were right on The Smashing Pumpkins too, nice to know there is someone else on here who appreciates them.

Oops! You beat me to the punch UDM, oh well. I saw it, just had to post it. Damn. Between The Spirit and Watchmen... the blood is rushing through my head and settling somewhere south of the border.

Holy hell!!! I don't have anything disgusting to say about the Watchmen trailer unfortunately (or very fortunately depending on your personal feelings) but I almost had tears in my eyes. I was watching that freaking amazing trailer and I could see the comic panels that a scene was drawn from and I could almost see the dialogue bubbles. I cannot believe how great it looks. I watched the trailer 3 times in a row and then had to turn it off. I couldn't take any more at that time. Wow, just wow.

I loved the Watchmen trailer, it literally looks they translated the graphic novel onto the screen, which is what I wanted. That just got me excited before TDK, and guess what, my boner didn't go away haha

Well, the watchmen trailer was completely brilliant, loved the Pumpkins song it was set to, perfect. I believe the guy in front of me at the theater summed up the trailer pretty well: I think I just had an eyegasm

I think we should be wary about Watchmen. It's easy these days with Greenscreen techniques to make something look like a comic book. Sure, Watchmen looks good, but does that mean it will be good? It's hard to say. After reading the comic, I was flustered at the concept of adapting it. Because it's not just a simple plot, it has a million strands flailing in the wind which all contribute to the quality of the story. To strip it down to its basic plot is to dilute its brilliance. And so far I'm concerned about the abilities of Zack Snyder- because 300 was almost devoid of character.

"Body of lies" need some work on its trailer although Crowe and Dicaprio with Scott directing is enough to get me to see it. . However, the "Terminator" teaser got the strongest "alright" from the audience at the screening I was at.

Did anyone not notice something really concerning about The Watchmen trailer? The Night Owl is buffed up and kicking ass. In the comic he was middle aged and not what he used to be in the body department. I really hope Snyder isn't loosing track of the level of despondancy these characters are supposed to be in.

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

I did notice that but I ignored it. This trailer is perfect. LOL But the trailer needs more Rorschach.

YES!!!! ABSOLUTELY!!! *SPOILER* don't read comment below if you haven't read the graphic novel* But I am really pissed that you already saw the part where Manhattan blows him up

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

At least the trailer wasn't like 300 where it's just shots of people screaming, people falling off cliffs and you not knowing what the hell is going on.

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

Quake, where in the trailer is that? I didn't see it at all!

You knew what was going on in the Watchmen trailer? The 300 trailer at least explained part of the story, i think.

Yeah, to the uninitiated, I thought the Watchmen trailer revealed very little. I'm guessing that is just a teaser with a full trailer coming out in the coming months.

That Zach Snyder sure loves his slow-mo shots.

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

Nothing wrong with that as far as I'm concerned.

That wasn't in the trailer. The only thing Dr. Manhattan blows up is a Vietcong soldier in a rice hat thing. That is from the Book when Manhattan ends Vietnam and is 60 foot tall. In the trailer you can see the helicopters circling his head.

seeing the Watchmen trailer on the big screen gave me the warm fuzzies.. just like the first 300 trailer.. speaking of which (and with all due respect to 300), perhaps we should make a thread called "Trailers that are Better than Their Movies"

The Brave One was marginal, but I can't really remember the trailer too well now. But spot on with 300... that's the insult I've been looking to use regarding 300 for a while now! That the trailer was better than the film... the film was just the trailer shown over and over 50 times IMO. Oh and the Watchmen trailer seems interesting, although 1) I'm unfamiliar with the graphic novel in the first place and 2) I prefer the Sin City-esque The Spirit trailer more right now (even though it's been kinda trashed a bit recently).

Oh and here's a film trailer I've been waiting some time for... Jim Carrey's Yes Man http://youtube.com/watch?v=v730wlOp9QY Ahhh, Jim Carrey acting like a doofus in that way only Jim Carrey can. It's been a while, hasn't it? Red Bull... Red Bull... Red Bull!!! Cue the obligatory Jim Carrey haters, right... about... now!

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

Buscemi — GMT

Cool World. Both trailers. Much better than the film. Meanwhile with The Brave One's trailer, it seems like it's being promoted as an comedy with that final line (you know, with the dog).

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

transformers2 — GMT

300 is a great movie i mean a lot of people on here on love it and hate it its defintley one of the most disagreed upon films on here. The Brave One Trailer was crap i thought it was one of the worst trailers of last year.

It looks like a sequel to "Liar Liar", instead in this one, he must say "yes". Oh, brother.

It's actually based on a book written by a British comedian who just decided to start answering 'Yes' to everything he was asked. It was quite an amusing series. And Rhys Darby (Murray from Flight Of The Conchords) is in it. That's enough to make me wanna see it.

I just ordered The Watchmen novel yesterday after reading a scene by scene analysis of the teaser. Looks real good. And now I can actually understand what the heck I'm watching.

hardly. Doesn't sound like the best closing credits ever, but I trust Snyder- the music for the trailer was perfect. Plus the end credits has never ruined a movie for me

What about Snakes On A Plane, Alyson?

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

NSpannaus — GMT

so i just looked up My Chemical Romance to figure out who the hell they are.. and (with a little help from Aly) i heard their cover of desolation row.. it's pretty uninspired.. it has a sex-pistols vibe to it.. in other words, it ain't no Where Is My Mind

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

numbersix_99 — GMT

NSpan, My Chemical Romance are an emo band who market teen angst to diguise their utter lack of talent. To equate them to the sex pistols is an insult. I don't like the Sex Pistols, but at least they represented a movement that had heart and conviction. that said, the revised Smashing Pumpkins song for the Watchemn trailer did work. I just wonder is Snyder stuck in the later 90s.

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

JackO — GMT

I read a thing that said that Snyder just used the music for "irony" because it was a part of the god awful Batman and Robin. The song won't even be on the soundtrack.

Yeah, get all the moviegoers to think that this will be a cheesy movie. Heck don't even have a trailer if that's what you're doing.

bummer. I read that the song was written specifically for batman and robin - now that is ironic

Re:Watchmen, Body of Lies Trailer

becs — GMT

Its not like they knew the movie was going to be garbage when they wrote the song, just because they agreed to associate it with a movie that ended up sucking, doesn't mean its any less iconic of a song. I think its brilliant (and love the new version, much more dramatic) for the trailer, probably the only other song I can think of that would be fitting but probably not quite dark enough is Take a Bow by Muse... or maybe Apocalypse Please, I dunno.

i only meant that their cover of 'desolation row' (the original is a great, great song, btw) seems to be more inspired by the sex pistols than dylan himself... also, the version of the pumpkins' song from the watchmen trailer isn't new--it came out with the original single
